Answer 1

Answer: Task demand

Explanation:

In psychology, the task demand can be defined as the impact of task features on the individual or groups ability to compete for the task. The demands that are required to perform a specific task are called as task demands. The demands may be more or few depends on the task being performed. The task features will include the difficulty in the procedures that an individual or group of people face to compete the task.

In the given situation, noisy and without air condition environment is likely to distract the mind from task. Also, the workspace is cramped and tools for working are humming and buzzing. All these conditions are likely to affect the working condition for tasks negatively. These are the causes of stress in the work place. Thus here peaceful environment, proper workspace, and tools are the task demands.
